Opportunisticness.

And then it was time for another update.

I've got a few "visitors". x)

Including mum and my siblings, but also Rowena: A cat.

She's silly. And a bit opportunistic: Only comes for a pat and a rub when she wants to be fed.

Pictures next time. Maybe.

Oh. I need to stop being broke.

Does anyone have good movie and/or book suggestions?

I'm going to be having a lot of time on my hands. I hope.

Back in Holland.

Ah, yes. Updates.

Not good at those. Much.
Did a lot, been really busy.

Avoided a lot, too. Kept me busy as while.

Paperwork, family, friends, movies..

Exhausting myself and not being sorry about it.

Relaxing and sleeping are for whimps, anyways.

A few snapshots of the past few weeks (Not necessarily in chronological order) : Enjoy:

The plane's food was very... worldcuppish.
Too bad that didn't work to our advantage.
Food was better on the way back, anyways.

Visited culture and architecture.

Sunsets. They look so good.


Some things though, they reminded me of Holland. And concerts. ;D

Long lost glory.
This theater has been around for more than a century?
Used to be a theater stage first, turned into a cinema later.

There has been a rather large number of people I know getting bethrothed and/or wed, settling down, and giving birth. Alarmingly many, really, of my own generation. Am I getting old?




These chicks? They be awesome.

Spent a lot of time around kids.

She rocks. Really.

That's the day of the worldcup finals.
We didn't lose cause of lack of supporters in Egypt, or colour-mistakes.

I'm not a sun-sea-sand kind of vacationer.
But swimming was awesome. I even went for a last minute dive a few hours before getting on the plane back.


BOING.

I'm back home. =)

Update?

Two pink-eyes. They burn. Badly.

A stuffy nose.

Exhaustion.

And melting in the heat.

That's as much a summary as I am able to give right now.

Love,

Freeze!... Please?

There are times in your life when you wish you could just freeze everything.

That everything could stay exactly that way forever.

Not necessarily because that moment in life is so splendid (though usually that's exactly why), but because you fear what comes after that specific moment.

You know things are in a continuous flux, and everything changes.

Then you know things for you will change. That's okay.

When you know they'll end up changing for the worse, then you've got a problem.

I wish I could've frozen time in May. Or last January.

I'm going to do my hardest to enjoy the coming months.

Because I have to.

After all, life's not about how many breaths you take, but about the times that take your breath away. [/cliché].

Something to think about.

When I do (or don't) do something, I don't do (or not do) it for others.

I do (or don't do) it because I do (or don't) want to do it (or not).

So stop judging.

Drinks all around!

Felicitations are in the air. A lot of people are being congratulated on passing, ie. succeeding for their year's exams. I, for one, passed this period with a mingled feeling of gratitude for not sitting for any exams whatsoever this year, nostalgia over when I used to think exam-stress was the most awful thing ever (think I'm over that, now), and an obsessive anxiety about next year.

To be more specific, I have a "What the hell did I get myself into this time?" kind of feeling.

Yay.

Anyways: Congratulations! to all those who passed, Good luck! to all those still busy with exams and projects, and uhm.. Hi! To all those who fall in neither category.

I vote for a party.

I love parties!

Drinks all around!

Have I posted this before?

In this city, perhaps a street.

In this street, perhaps a house.

In this house, perhaps a room,

And in this room a woman sitting,

Sitting in the darkness, sitting and crying

For someone who has just gone through the door

And who has just switched off the light

Forgetting she was there.
